MARINE SPEAKER
Connecting the speaker
Use the correct polarity when daisy chaining speakers! When a
mistake occurs in your daisy chain, it can severely impact speaker
performance as there will be audio-cancellation.
The daisy chain options are endless and the setup will depend on
the capabilities of your amplifier. Make sure when daisy chaining
speakers that the total impedance is not lower than the lowest
specified impedance of your amplifier. Not following this rule may
result in distorted sound and may even damage your amplifier.
Total resistance =
1
1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 + 1/R4 + ...
R1 = Resistance of speaker 1 R2 = Resistance of speaker 2
R3 = Resistance of speaker 3 R4 = Resistance of speaker 4
